BMA House

BMA House

With a central London location in Bloomsbury’s Tavistock Square, BMA House has been home to the British Medical Association since 1925. Behind the imposing gated entrance and columned brickwork lie 13 flexible spaces for business meetings and events for up to 320 people; all in all, it’s a very distinguished setting for conferences, AGMs, board meetings, product launches, training days, awards ceremonies, banquets, dinner-dances and drinks reception.

BMA House was designed by Sir Eward Lutyens; inside, original Art Deco features, high ceilings, big windows and a striking colour scheme make a gorgeous backdrop to weddings. The biggest of the event spaces is The Great Hall with deep red Corinthian columns, blue ceiling panels and gold leaf; it holds 320 for drinks, 294 theatre style or 200 for a banquet.

The Paget and Snow Room both have capacity for a reception for 160 and seat 156 and 105 respectively in theatre style; the slightly smaller Courtyard Suite accommodates 150 and 120 in those layouts. 6 further rooms hold 90 to 100 guests, including the purpose-built Council Chamber with theatre style seating for 97. The Dickens Room seats a maximum of 60 and two smaller rooms have room for 20-22.

Expect complimentary Wi-Fi, cutting edge AV technology, with hybrid and virtual events packages available. The venue works with catering partners to offer nutritious hospitality menus and you’ll be in the hands of a professional events team.

Russel Square, Euston, Kings Cross, and St Pancras International and Eurostar stations are within easy walking distance.
